** Hunter goes from just being a brave and steady RedShirt to a man who charges through a field of fire with a pistol in each hand to provide cover for Captain Smollett to throw a bomb at the pirates.

** Joyce gets an AdaptationalComicRelief treatment due to some polite but nervous dialogue that emphasizes his lack of experience with weapons. He also survives the wound that killed him in the book and [[TookALevelInBadass proceeds to kill multiple pirates during the battle of the stockade.]]
